Reborn Through Fire (Kisa and Gilbert) novel Chapter 86

This was the first time Kisa let her guard down. She cried like a child when she confronted Gilbert, "Why are you doing this to me? What did I do wrong? What have I ever done wrong?"

But no matter how much she cried, she would never gain pity from the man in front of her. After all, she was not Sara. To him, her tears were just a tool to gain sympathy. His cold, gloomy face did not change in the slightest. Even his eyes were as cold as ice.

Kisa saw the indifference on his face and knew that her tears were a joke to him. She could cry in front of anyone and everyone except Gilbert. He was stone cold when it came to Kisa. He would never fall for her tears.

Suddenly, Kisa laughed. The look on her face seemed twisted, combined with the tears rolling down her cheeks, "Oh, I forgot, you never fall for my tears. I guess this little trick of mine wouldn't work on you."

Gilbert's hands that were holding her slowly tightened, and Kisa could feel his rising anger.

All of a sudden, Gilbert yanked Kisa to the ground and yelled, "Get out!"

She had been looking forward to hearing those words the whole day. Despite her body aching from the fall, she got up, adjusted her collar, and walked out of there without looking back.

Gilbert stared at her as she fled the scene, and he proceeded to smash everything on the bedside table in anger.

'Why is this woman always so stubborn? I want to strangle her to death,' he thought.

Kisa ran back to her room and locked the door. She leaned against the door and started weeping.

'Why am I always in her shadow? I don't owe her anything, but why am I the one who has to protect her from every disaster? Why do I have to cover for her? I'm a person too, but Gilbert never worries for me. I know he loves Sara, but why must he hurt me in the process? What did I do wrong?'

The more Kisa thought about it, the more she felt mistreated.

She slid her back against the door and fell to the floor. She bent her knees and curled herself into a ball, just to feel some sense of security.

It was going to be a sleepless night for Kisa.

Just as she was about to fall asleep the next morning, she was awakened by a sudden knock on the door.
